Kt,(i) where y represents the distance through which the liquid has moved in the time t, and n and K are constants depending on the temperature and the specific substances. Theoretical Discussion.—The movement of a liquid from one level to another through a capillary tube has been studied by Poiseuille. 8 In his experiments the ends of thecapillary tube opened into large reservoirs, and the length of the capil-lary tube through which the liquid passed was constant. The results show that the amount of water which passes through the tube in a given time is proportional to the difference in level between the liquid in the two reservoirs, proportional to the fourth power of the diameter of the tube, and inversely proportional to the length of the tube, provided the length is very long in comparison with the diameter. This is expressed by the equation where Q is the amount of liquid which passes through in unit time, H is the difference in level or “head,” D and L are the diameter and length of the capillary tube respectively, and C is a constant. Thisformula may be applied to the advance
